Chapter 458: Assassination_1
Recently, in order to increase income and reduce expenditure, Yingbao had several large mushroom sheds constructed within the residence. She also had two baking ovens installed, and invited all servants and guards to observe her process of mushroom cultivation.
The primary mushroom she focused on was Xue'er, as it tasted better than golden ear and was cheaper, making it easier for the common people to accept.
She also planted a significant amount of golden ear, though not as much as Xue'er.
All these mushroom seeds were brought from Dongchen Village in Qinchuan County. After soaking them in Pupil Spring, they had a very high germination rate.
Once this batch of mushrooms matured, Yingbao planned to distribute some mushroom seeds among the poor families in the villages. She hoped it would encourage them to undertake additional work in their spare time to improve their living conditions. She would also cultivate a portion herself to maintain her team of over forty helpers.
